I heard about how bad the hail was up in that area. That is awful man, I hope you find your way back in a Z again.

Correct me off I am wrong but you do appear to be taking up two parking spaces. I am pretty sure they will deny your your claim for being parked illegally. Those dents will come right out with a few hits from a ball peen hammer. Ha ha just kidding. Hopefully you are paid off our at least right side up on your payments.

Lol I knew someone would point out the 2 parking spaces. I agree it's kind of douchey, but in my defense I work there and have been parking in the same lot for twelve years. I've had 3 separate instances of my (various) cars being dinged in the parking lot...the last time my car got hit so hard they had to replace the passenger and suicide door on my RX8. After that the property management gave me special dispensation to park across 2 spaces if the lot wasn't full. Given the choice of being a douche or continuing to file insurance claims I chose to be a douche Believe me, I don't park like that anywhere else.

I'm about two years into my loan and just about break even. Any shortfall will be covered by gap.

You sShould have put this post in the Crappy Parking Thread

Sorry for your misfortune and hope you get back in a Z soon.

It's my dirty little secret that I regularly peruse the crappy parker thread fully expecting that one day I was going to be publicly shamed there. Frankly I'm shocked no one on the board ever caught me as I park in full view of a pretty heavily trafficked area. I see several Z's in the area on a regular basis.

We had a little hail and heavy rain here in Delaware but nothing like what happened in your area. Hope everything works out for you with your claim.

Anything that was plastic is cracked, every light housing is shattered, the windshield is cracked in so many places I can't even count them all and the back window just completely blew out. It even destroyed my gas cap cover...I found it halfway across the parking lot. I would have been hard pressed to do this much damage with a baseball bat before I tired out.

It's been a fun couple of years, but I guess the Z wasn't meant to be. Maybe it's time to get a Prius or something.
That makes me sick to my stomach.

I am sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of mourning and grief.

We got some nasty hail here in Indiana also but nothing like that! I was glad I was driving my truck and not "Tina" or I would have just cried and walked home. If there is a cloud in the sky she doesn't come out of the batcave.

The destruction in that parking lot is uncanny!

Really glad you didn't get hurt. Hate to see such damage to a beautiful car though. I guess mother nature wanted to you get one of the new Nismos.

So I guess now would be a bad time to give you grief for taking 2 parking spaces?
